TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing an all-solid-state battery using a roll press process.

BACKGROUND

An all-solid-state battery includes a three-layered laminated body of a cathode active material layer bonded to a cathode current collector, an anode active material layer bonded to an anode current collector, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer.

Because the all-solid-state battery includes an electrolyte layer in a solid state, an ultra-high-pressure pressing process is performed in order to improve the interfacial adhesive strength between the solid electrolyte layer and each active material layer and ionic conductivity during the manufacturing process thereof.

However, when the ultra-high-pressure pressing process is performed, the following problems are very likely to occur.

1) The pressing causes physical damage to the laminated body, resulting in a short circuit and/or a sharp decline in cell performance.

2) Production costs are increased due to the decrease in processability caused by application of ultra-high pressure and due to the addition of equipment for the purpose of deformation control.

Therefore, there is a need for a new manufacturing method to overcome the above-described limitations of the all-solid-state battery.

SUMMARY

Therefore, embodiments of the present disclosure can solve problems encountered in the related art, and specific embodiments thereof are as follows.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method of manufacturing an all-solid-state battery having dimensional stability and cell performance equivalent or superior to those of the related art even without performing an ultra-high-pressure pressing process.

The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the foregoing, and will be able to be clearly understood through the following description and to be realized by the means described in the claims and combinations thereof.

A method of manufacturing an all-solid-state battery according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes forming first active material layers on both surfaces of a first current collector to obtain a first electrode member, pressing the first electrode member, forming second active material layers on both surfaces of a second current collector and forming solid electrolyte layers on the second active material layers to thus obtain a second electrode member, pressing the second electrode member, layering the pressed first electrode member and the pressed second electrode member to obtain a laminated body, and pressing the laminated body by passing the laminated body between a pair of rollers.

The pressing the first electrode member may include applying a pressure so that the pressed first electrode member has a thickness of 80 to 90% of a thickness before the pressing.

The first electrode member may be pressed by being passed between the pair of rollers.

The pressing the second electrode member may include applying a pressure so that the pressed second electrode member has a thickness of 80 to 90% of a thickness before the pressing.

The pressed laminated body may have a thickness of 100 to 300 μm.

In the manufacturing method, each of the first electrode member and the second electrode member may be formed so as to have a length larger than a width, and the first electrode member and the second electrode member may be layered so that one longitudinal end of the second electrode member coincides with one longitudinal end of the first electrode member and so that a remaining longitudinal end of the second electrode member protrudes a predetermined length farther than a remaining longitudinal end of the first electrode member, thereby obtaining the laminated body.

The predetermined length of the remaining protruding end of the second electrode member may be 1/20 to 1/40 of the total length of the second electrode member.

The manufacturing method may further include, after the laminated body is pressed, folding the second electrode member so that the remaining protruding end of the second electrode member surrounds the remaining end of the first electrode member.

The manufacturing method may further include consecutively folding the laminated body in the direction in which the remaining end of the second electrode member is folded.

Thereafter, the pressed first electrode member 10 and second electrode member 20 may be layered to obtain a laminated body at step S5, and the laminated body may be passed between a pair of rollers R as shown in FIG. 5 so as to be pressed at step S6.

As described above, in the manufacture of a conventional all-solid-state battery, an ultra-high-pressure pressing process is performed for the purpose of realizing bonding strength between the solid electrolyte layer and the active material layer and ionic conductivity. Isostatic pressing is mainly performed, which not only damages the laminated body but is also unsuitable for mass production of all-solid-state batteries.

In embodiments of the present disclosure, the electrode members are pre-pressed prior to main pressing on the laminated body, and the pressed electrode members are layered and pressed using a roll press, thereby ensuring dimensional stability equivalent or superior to that of the related art and also significantly improving productivity.

The step of pressing the laminated body at step S6 may include adjusting an interval between a pair of rollers R so that the pressed laminated body has a thickness of 70 to 80% of a thickness before the pressing, thereby pressing the laminated body. For example, the thickness of the pressed laminated body may be 100 to 300 μm, but is not limited thereto.

Another embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing a folding-type all-solid-state battery.

First, after the first electrode member 10 and the second electrode member 20 are prepared as described above, as shown in FIG. 6A, the first electrode member 10 and the second electrode member 20 may be layered so that one longitudinal end B1 of the second electrode member 20 coincides with one longitudinal end A1 of the first electrode member 10 and so that a remaining longitudinal end B2 of the second electrode member 20 protrudes a predetermined length x farther than a remaining longitudinal end A2 of the first electrode member 10, thereby obtaining the laminated body.

The predetermined length x that the remaining end B2 of the second electrode member 20 protrudes may be 1/20 to 1/40 of the total length of the second electrode member 20.

Thereafter, the laminated body may be passed between a pair of rollers R as shown in FIG. 5 so as to be pressed, and the second electrode member 20 may then be folded so that the remaining protruding end B2 of the second electrode member 20 surrounds the remaining end A2 of the first electrode member 10 as shown in FIG. 6B.

Finally, the laminated body may be consecutively folded in the direction in which the remaining end B2 of the second electrode member 20 is folded, thus obtaining the folding-type all-solid-state battery shown in FIG. 6C.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to specific Examples and Experimental Examples. However, these Examples and Experimental Examples are for illustrative purposes only, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
